Mascot Talk Heating Up!

[BayouRichard]

The problem with 2 animals, specifically dogs (bulldog and/or Catahoula, Louis and Anna) is that although they can be bought at the same time, you are never sure if they are going to die close together. So you if Louis lives to be 12 and Anna dies at 6, then would have to replace the other one with a 6 year old rather than a small dog. Financially it is not the best option because theoretically you would want them to live as long as possible and be close to the same age the entire time they are together (full grownish). You would not want to purchase an older dog to match the older one you have if it is not going live out its full life with you.

I was in SGA back in the late 80's and early 90's and we discussed this exact thought. I wanted 2 bulldogs and was quickly informed why that would not work. Now the real option would be 2 Alligators because we have the availability to use Alligators here on campus or through the Wildlife preserves.

I prefer we do not use live animals. I would rather people dress up in costume. Live animals can cause issues. Just ask folks to the north.

I got in the Cayenne suit one time and walked around campus. Completely disgusting.

Dude you didnt need the Cayenne suit to be completely disgusting.

Not that I am against your mascot idea. Red won't work because it will fade to pink within just a few years. That was one of the reasons the pepper went away.

Sorry brother, the cayenne chilli pepper is later (gone) b/c somehow, someway, somebody was allowed to make a flaming dildeaux rep Cajuns Football.

I never said to bring the pepper back, it was used as an example of why red won't work.

Before Martin Hall blindly went with the pepper, Ken Ardoin saw a rendition and tried to stop it by declaring "This will be our penance on earth."

Rear note: Spirit leaders can't afford to have a tail.

Some drunk trying to be funny will pick on the tail.

Some toddler will get knocked down just by turning around.

Long snout, no tail.

A real gator with four handlers like the Colorado Buffalo or Bevo would be so sweet. I mean Florida can have those stupid fake gators, well have the real thing. Put them back in Cypress Lake after each game.

Name it whatever you want to, I don’t care.

Feed those gators whatever mascot were playing that week…chickens will take care of most opponents.
